chlamydia trachomatis is one of the main causes of sexually transmitted diseases (stds) such as  prostatitis and epididymitis in men and cervicitis, endometriosis, vaginitis and ureogenital tract infections in women.  serological tests with sensitivities related to specific antigens are commonly used as  routine laboratory tests for diagnosis of chlamydia. in this research the chlamydia major o...

conclusions our results showed that the recombinant protein produced by the pbad vector in the escherichia coli system was very efficient. background nontypeable haemophilus influenzae (nthi) is a significant pathogen in children, causing otitis media, sinusitis, conjunctivitis, pneumonia, and occasionally invasive infections. protein d (pd) belongs to the minor outer-membrane proteins of h. in...

objective(s):multi-epitopic protein vaccines and direction of vaccine delivery to dendritic cells (dcs) are promising approaches for enhancing immune responses against mutable pathogens. escherichia coli is current host for expression of recombinant proteins, and it is important to optimize expression condition. the aim of this study was the optimization of multi-epitopic hiv-1 tat/pol/gag/env ...

this paper reviews recent strategies used for increasing specific yield and productivity in high cell density cultures. high cell density cultures offer an efficient means for the economical production of recombinant proteins. however, there are still some challenges associated with high cell density cultivation (hcdc) techniques. a variety of strategies in several aspects including host design...

objective(s): streptokinase (ska) is an antigenic protein which is secreted by streptococcus pyogenes. streptokinase induces inflammation by complement activation, which may play a role in post infectious diseases. in the present study, recombinant streptokinase from s. pyogenes was produced and showed that recombinant ska protein was recognized by infected human sera using western blot analysi...

the influenza a virus is of global concern for the poultry industry, especially the h5 subtype as it has the potential to become highly pathogenic for poultry and mankind. recently, plant expression systems have gained interest as an alternative for the production of vaccine antigens. the goal of the present study was to investigate the possibility of expressing the ha1 protein in nicotiana tab...

background: the advent of recombinant dna technology has facilitated heterologous expression of proteins from various sources in different host systems including escherichia coli. if a plant virus coat protein is expressed in the bacterium it can be used as the antigen for antibody preparation. such a recombinant antigen preparation can be particularly useful where equipment such as ultracentri...

background : amelogenins are the major components of enamel matrix proteins. enamel matrix derivatives (emd) can be used in periodontal diseases to regenerate periodontal tissues. the main aim of this study was to evaluate ex-pression of full-length functional recombinant human amelogenin (rham) in iranian lizard leishmania (i.l.l.) as an alternative eukaryotic expression system. methods : huma...

Background: Thrombopoietin (TPO) is an important cytokine that has a critical role in regulating hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) proliferation and megakaryocyte differentiation. Because of scares amount of this protein in human plasma, in many biotechnological centers around the world, recombinant production of this protein has been carried out. This study was aiming to gene cloning and express...
